Jeane

Jeane is an English feminine name functioning as a variant spelling of Jean, which itself derives from the Old French Jehane, a form of the Latin Johanna. Johanna traces back to the Greek Ioanna and ultimately to the Hebrew Yochanan, meaning God is gracious. The name shares its roots with Joan, Jane, and Joanna, all of which spread widely across Europe following the popularity of these forms in medieval Christianity. Jeane is the less common spelling, used primarily in English-speaking countries alongside the standard Jean.
